Lionel Messi’s fiancee Antonella Roccuzzo has wedding dress flown in while family feud loom
Relationship between Argentine's family and his partner has been strained for or nearly seven years
LIONEL MESSI is set to marry his childhood sweetheart Antonella Roccuzzo - whose wedding dress was flown in on a private jet from Spain.
There is tension between Messi's family and his fiancee but they are set to forget about their feud ahead of the big occasion.
But it is believed the families will settle their differences for the wedding, despite their past.
A menu which includes steak, salad, sushi and pasta has reportedly been leaked for guests to feast their eyes on.
Also a private jet flew in with Antonella's wedding dress from Spain, along with some of the most famous footballers in the world.
Messi will be joined by the likes of Xavi, Carles Puyol, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba as well as former Barca team-mate Cesc Fabregas.
Former Barcelona striker Samuel Eto’o was also pictured on the runway ahead of the wedding.
Messi met Roccuzzo when they were just 13 years old and the pair have two children together, named Thiago and Mateo.
One of his team-mates, Andres Iniesta has said he will not be able to attend the wedding, while Gerard Pique’s partner Shakira will be performing as part of the evening’s entertainment.
Messi chose not to invite former boss Luis Enrique and his assistant Juan Carlos Unzue.
Also no members of the Barca board were invited due to a long-running feud between former president Joan Laporta and current president Josep Maria Bartomeu.
